Meyer Lemon Panna Cotta 2 Recipes

MEYER LEMON PANNA COTTA

Steps:

• Preparation Heat the heavy cream, half and half, sugar and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Add the lemon zest. Lightly oil eight custard cups with a neutral-tasting oil. (I use canola). Sprinkle the gelatin over the Meyer lemon juice in a medium-sized bowl and let stand 5 to 10 minutes until the gelatin has become "mushy" or bloomed. Pour the very warm Panna Cotta mixture over the gelatin and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Divide the Panna Cotta mixture into the prepared cups, then chill them until firm, which will take at least two hours but I let them stand at least four hours. Run a sharp knife around the edge of each Panna Cotta and unmold each onto a serving plate, and garnish with citrus supremes.
